Editorial Review: Product Description: MLB 08 THE SHOW is set to provide fans with the most realistic baseball experience to date with innovations such as a more immersive Road to The Show mode, enabling gamers to play both offense and defense from the created player's perspective. Providing players with some additional performance incentives, the MLB franchise introduces the Progressive Batting Performance feature, which will both reward players for superior performance and penalize them for hitting slumps. Specific to each individual batter, players will be rewarded with slight contact bonuses, or punished with slight decreases in contact, based on how that batter performs beyond his "natural ability." MLB 08 THE SHOW introduces SCOUT (SportsConnect Online User Tracking), which allows you to set and store your game preferences on the MLB server, and enables the system to look for a Quick Match with opponents that fits similar competitive criteria. Exhibition Mode/Quick Game - Gamers can select their favorite team and compete against the AI for a quick game on the go Historical Greats - Offers Historical Greats, giving them the opportunity to go against the legends of the past Release Point Pitching with Confidence Meter - The ultimate pitcher/batter interface returns Playmaker Fielding- The fielding interface brings the player attributes together with the user's skill level Multi-Branch Fielding - Branch Point Technology goes to a new level as gamers can now take full control of fielders and break out of any animation in the process User Controlled Slides - Players can now control base runners in attempts to advance and/or score MLB Authenticity - Presents fans with finer details and nuances that make the game America's past Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Almost perfectOne of the problems with reviewing sports video games is, by the time you have played it enough to give a fair critique, the current season is over, and nobody (hard-core sports games addicts, anyway) wants to buy LAST years game version. However, after again playing through a full pre-season, regular 162 game season, and playoffs with my home-town Chicago White Sox (and winning it all, btw),here is my critique: I am concentrating only on the game as it pertains to those who buy sports games primarily to play through a full season with their favorite team, and are interested in not only fun, but realistic gameplay and believable statistics. I'll comment briefly on the Road To The Show,etc, but the below is mainly about playing a season ... Read More: Rating:  - GreatGreat baseball game lots of fun, still cost to much on Amazon. I picked it up for 15 dollars at target. Rating: - Best baseball game to dateThis game definitively lives up to all of the hype. If you are a hard core baseball fan, love video games, this game is the way to go. Pitching, fielding, hitting, and base running are the most realistic and fun of any other baseball game I have played. Pitching is not only pressing a button and expecting the pitch to go exactly to that spot, as with other games. In this game, the pitcher has to work to get a good feel for all his pitches. The more you use a type of pitch, and the better you get hitters out with it, the more effective it becomes. The less you use a pitch, the less effective, and harder to throw (as in real life). Franchise mode in this game is great. You have comprehensive control including player ... Read More: Rating: - The bestI'm very picky about baseball games, but this is the best one I've ever played. Rating: - One of the best Baseball series makes its way to the PS3MLB 08: The Show has got all the bells and whistles you could want in a baseball game. The graphics are stunning and what you would expect from a PS3 sports title. Player models are accurate, I.E. Brandon Webb has a got a noticeably fatter body type than, the skinny Randy Johnson. The gameplay itself is great, there are a multitude of sliders you can change on top of four difficulty modes to really tune the game how you want it to be played. One problem was if none of the sliders were changed, you can get a ton of hits but only a few runs. So I've had lines like 3 runs 12 hits quite a lot. With the sliders I'm sure that this can be adjusted though. Now on to the gameplay modes. Franchise mode is exactly what it implies, ... Read More: |
